Answer:
2.77
the bus company should decrease price to increase revenues.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
percentage change in price = 1.21 / 0.99 - 1 = 0.222 = 22%
Percentage change in quantity demanded = 169 / 433 = -0.6097 = - 60.97%
Elasticity of demand = 60.97% / 22% = 2.77
Demand is elastic, so if price in reduced, there would be a rise in quantity demanded that would exceed the rise in price. This would increase revenues
(Bond valuation) You are examining three bonds with a par value of $1 comma 000 (you receive $1 comma 000 at maturity) and are concerned with what would happen to their market value if interest rates (or the market discount rate) changed. The three bonds are Bond Along dasha bond with 5 years left to maturity that has an annual coupon interest rate of 8 percent, but the interest is paid semiannually. Bond Blong dasha bond with 10 years left to maturity that has an annual coupon interest rate of 8 percent, but the interest is paid semiannually. Bond Clong dasha bond with 15 years left to maturity that has an annual coupon interest rate of 8 percent, but the interest is paid semiannually. What would be the value of these bonds if the market discount rate were a. 8 percent per year compounded semiannually? b. 5 percent per year compounded semiannually? c. 15 percent per year compounded semiannually? d. What observations can you make about these
Answer:
Bond A, 5 years to maturity, semiannual coupons, 8%
Bond B, 10 years to maturity, annual coupon, 8%
Bond C, 15 years to maturity, semiannual coupon, 8%
a) market rate 8% semiannual
Bonds A and C will be worth $1,000 (par value)
price of bond B:
effective interest rate = 1.04² - 1 = 8.16%PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.04²⁰ = $456.39PV of coupon payments = $80 x 6.66192 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 8.16%, 10 periods) = $532.95market price = $989.34
b) price of bond A:
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.025¹⁰ = $781.98
PV of coupon payments = $40 x 8.75206 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 2.5%, 10 periods) = $350.08
market price = $1,132.06
price of bond B:
effective interest rate = 1.025² - 1 = 5.0625%PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.025²⁰ = $610.27PV of coupon payments = $80 x 7.69817 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 5.0625%, 10 periods) = $615.85market price = $1,226.12
price of bond C:
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.025³⁰ = $476.74
PV of coupon payments = $40 x 20.93029 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 2.5%, 30 periods) = $837.21
market price = $1,313.95
c) price of bond A:
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.075¹⁰ = $485.19
PV of coupon payments = $40 x 6.86408 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 7.5%, 10 periods) = $274.56
market price = $759.75
price of bond B:
effective interest rate = 1.075² - 1 = 15.5625%PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.075²⁰ = $235.41PV of coupon payments = $80 x 4.91292 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 15.5625%, 10 periods) = $393.03market price = $628.44
price of bond C:
PV of face value = $1,000 / 1.075³⁰ = $114.22
PV of coupon payments = $40 x 11.81039 (PV ordinary annuity factor, 7.5%, 30 periods) = $472.42
market price = $586.64
d) If the market rate is lower than the coupon rate, then the bonds will sell at a premium. The longer the maturity date, the larger the variations in market price due to different interest rates. E.g. the 15 year bond is more affected than the 5 year bond.

Which term refers to the first level of a product, which depends on the customer value it generates?
A.
augmented product
B.
core benefit
C.
expected product
D.
basic product
Answer:
B. core benefit
Explanation:
A product can be defined as any physical object or material that typically satisfy and meets the demands, needs or wants of customers. Some examples of a product are mobile phones, television, microphone, microwave oven, bread, pencil, freezer, beverages, soft drinks etc.
According to the economist Philip Kotler in his book titled "Marketing management" he stated that, there are five (5) levels of a product. This includes;
1. Core benefit.
2. Generic product.
3. Expected product.
4. Augmented product.
5. Potential product.
The core benefit of a product can be defined as the basic (fundamental) wants or needs that is being satisfied, met and taken care of when a customer purchase a product.
Hence, the term that refers to the first level of a product, which depends on the customer value it generates is generally referred to as a core benefit. For example, a hotel provides a comfortable and convenient bed to spend the night (sleep) when you travel for a vacation.
